PRODUCT INFORMATION Embozene Color-Advanced Microspheres Precise size calibration Structural integrity and compressibility Stable suspension Biocompatibility 2
PRODUCT INFORMATION Embozene TANDEM Microspheres for Embolization combine the precision and ease of use customers have always appreciated in Embozene Microspheres with full integration of drugs*. Due to the design characteristics, Embozene TANDEM Microspheres may be loaded with up to 50 mg/ml microspheres: Doxorubicin-HCIfor local, controlled, sustained dose elution to targeted tumor sites such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after embolization. Irinotecan-HCIfor local, controlled, sustained dose elution to targeted tumor sites such as metastatic colorectal cancer (mcrc) after embolization. * Embozene TANDEM microspheres are indicated for embolization according to the IFU. They may be loaded with a drug to elute a local, controlled, sustained dose of said drug to targeted tumor sites after embolization. Loading of drug should be under a physician s direction, choice and responsibility, based on type and dose of drug most beneficial to the patient. 3

TANDEM PRICING Because of the higher drug loading capacity and the offering of 3 ml syringes, TANDEM will be more cost efficientfor the hospital. Example: a patient needs a dose of 150 mg of Doxorubicin -TANDEM loads the drug faster, saving time and money -TANDEM is capable of delivering 150 mg with one 3 ml syringe -TANDEM can load 33% more drug in a 2 ml syringe Competition TANDEM Maximum drug loading capacity per 2 ml vial or syringe 75 mg 100 mg Maximum drug loading capacity per 3 ml vial or syringe N/A 150 mg Maximum drug loading capacity per 4 ml vial or syringe 150 mg (need 2 x 2 ml vials) N/A 18
TANDEM KEY FEATURES Can load doxorubicin and irinotecan faster and easier Save time for the pharmacy (up to 90 minutes for loading irinotecan) Can load more drugs: up to 50 mg/ml microspheres Load 150 mg of drug in one 3 ml syringe Drugs release more slowly May reduce systemic side effects Microspheres do not change in size after drug loading Easy passage through microcatheters Ideal for targeted drug delivery near the tumor site 19
VALUE PROPOSITION TANDEM Microspheres are cost efficient and beneficial for: The Hospital: Capable of delivering drugs up to 150 mg with one 3 ml syringe Capable of delivering more drugs with a 2 ml syringe The Pharmacy: Easier drug loading, which saves time (up to 90 minutes faster for irinotecan and up to 60 minutes faster for doxorubicin) The Physician: Choice between 2 ml and 3 ml volumes (no need to use multiple vials or syringes during the same procedure) Ease of use (better fit through microcatheters) Targeted embolizations (Tight calibration, less size changes after drug loading) The Patient TANDEM Microspheres have a slower and more controlled drug release, which may result in fewer systemic effects and providing a higher level of patient care 20
TANDEM POSITIONING Precision Targeted drug delivery with tightly calibrated microspheres and superselective TACE Controlled and precise drug delivery and release at tumor site Microsphere size remains stable during drug loading and storage: typical size change less than 5% 21
TANDEM: TIGHT CALIBRATION AND SIZE STABILITY TANDEM 40 µm TANDEM 75 µm TANDEM 100 µm Competitor (100 300 µm) Tight size-calibration decreases risk of premature vessel occlusion Scale bar: 100 µm 22
TANDEM POSITIONING Efficiency Deliver up to 150 mg of Doxorubicin-HClor Irinotecan-HClwith one 3 ml syringe Fast drug loading times with superior drug loading capacity up to 50 mg/ml microspheres Controlled drug release rates for optimal localized drug delivery Flexibility Available in three sizes (40 µm, 75 µm and 100 µm) Available in two volumes (2 ml & 3 ml syringes) Ideal for passage through micro catheters 23
TANDEM POSITIONING Safety Color coded labels for easy recognition of microsphere sizes Slow and controlled drug release times may result in fewer systemic side effects 24
